Obtaining a File of Core Memory Information
Cisco customer support engineers often use files from your system for analysis. One such file contains
memory information and is referred to as a core dump. The file is sent to a TFTP server or to a flash card
in slot0: of the local switch. You should set up your switch to generate this file under the instruction of
your customer support representative and send it to a TFTP server so that it can be emailed to them.
To generate a file of core memory information, or a core dump, use the command in the following
example.
switch#
system cores tftp://10.91.51.200/jsmith_cores
switch#
show system cores
Cores are transferred to tftp://10.91.51.200/jsmith_cores
Note
The filename (indicated by jsmith_cores) must exist in the TFTP server directory.
